In Toast, click the "Copy" tab, then the "Image File" tab underneath that. Select your .dmg and burn it. That's all you have to do. When it's finished it will mount just like the original disk (IF that's the way it was uploaded to begin with!).

unfortunately that doesnt work, just brings up the installer files as if it was mounted, i want it to burn the file so that the program recognises it as the game disk.

IS it mounted when you try to burn?

It should look like this, then just select the UNMOUNTED .dmg and click "Burn"

yes thats how i did it, but when i put the disk in, it appears on my desktop, when i open it the installer and some documents are shown in it, if i try to start the game it asks me to input the game disk :S i dont know what is wrong

Is this a 2-disc game? Because it sounds like you burned it correctly.

Is there a readme file that gives instructions? Are there any comments from other d/l'ers?
